Joanne, This was great! One of my all time fave tunes! I like what you did with the hoedown and double stops. And it’s so great that you are playing with a band. I think our musical skills improve tremendously when we have that opportunity! Thanks for sharing!

Wow! This is great. Looks like a fun time. I like the arrangement too, how the bass changes for the B part.

Yeah, that was fun to listen to Joanne! Liked the slurring double stops. I need to memorize the words so I can sing along..no, on second thought, I’ll spare ya!😅

Great technique for jams that are maybe just a bit above our skill level. I think listening and playing backup chords really help and just sitting in on the sessions trains your mind to move a little faster. Although you may need to sit in a few sessions before you feel comfortable doing it, when it is your turn to lead a tune, don’t defer! Then set the tempo at your comfort level. It won’t hurt all those speed demons to play one correctly at a slower tempo!
